IMPORTANT PLEASE READ This website and forum has been living on borrowed web server time for years. At the end of this month silsden.net in it's present form will cease to exist, BUT there is a new silsden.net in the making, and a new forum, and lots of exciting new things coming to this space.

Topic : Ragwort |

Correct me if im wrong but i thought that the local council had a duty to rid the roads and verges of this highly dangerous weed .Ive just noticed that it is rife down at the roundabout and the waste land by the old mill on Keighley road |

Bob, you probably have to tell them about it - easy to do using this link page silsden.net/town_council/fault_report2.htm |
|
| Bob T |
Done that Peter, many thanks for the link lets see if anything happens |

Off to Cornwall where the verges will be dealt with by a sign and a bloke on a tractor. Bradford Council will no doubt soon have about a dozen men woking on the road with added costs of shutting down one carrigeway!!! |

people can not be bothered to clear weeds from infront of there own kerb stone by there front doors so how can we as residends of silsden complain about the weeds on the road in to cobydale |
|
| Bob T |
excuse me corby1 ,it was me that complained and there is not a weed to be seen outside my front ,so dont tar every body with the same brush thank you |

corby1 the weed in question is ragwort All parts of the plant (ragwort) contain alkaloids that are toxic to cattle, deer, pigs, horses and goats, causing liver damage, and death is slow often occuring months after ingestion. Sheep are less affected, but should not consume the weed as the liver damage can be cumulative. For more information see www.dgsgardening.btinternet.co.uk/ragwort.htm |
